Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On January 10, 2022, Tongmei’s formal application to list its shares in an initial public offering (the “IPO”) on the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s Sci-Tech innovAtion boaRd (the “STAR Market”) was accepted for review by the Shanghai Stock Exchange. On June 17, 2022, Tongmei’s revised application to list its shares in an IPO on the STAR Market was accepted for review by the Shanghai Stock Exchange. A copy of the revised preliminary information document (the “PID”) that was submitted by Tongmei in connection with the proposed STAR Market listing and IPO is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report. Copies of the supplementary Legal Opinion and supplementary Audit Inquiry Letter, which are exhibits to the PID, are being furnished as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3 to this report, respectively.

The information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor will it be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

The process of going public on the STAR Market includes several periods of review and is therefore a lengthy process. There can be no assurances that the proposed STAR Market listing and IPO will ultimately be approved by the Shanghai Stock Exchange and China Securities Regulatory Commission and completed.

The Tongmei shares referred to in the PID and this Item 7.01 have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This report is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of these shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
